Those who know me realize what a challenge I am with my "Crown & Glory" and at this moment collectively feel bad for my Stylist Nicole Casadei. It's true the 1st time I walked into the Salon with my Groupon my hair was down to the middle of my back, hadn't been cut in probably over a year, and I was totally "I don't care what you do just make it different". And that they did! My fist bob in over a decade, and it looked phenomenal.
Nicole took on styling my hair during the period of growth I had NEVER enjoyed and always dreaded, I told her that the first visit, and she still choose to let me be her client. The only direction I had for Nicole was "Just don't make me look like a POTATO" . I explained to her my National Sales Manager Dana Booth and his daughter work hard to one up each other with Text Abbreviations. One night when he was headed out she told him "Dad don't be a POTATO" That is People Over Thirty Acting Twenty One. Nicole didn't miss a beat and said "Well I didn't even know you were POT (People Over Thirty, don't feel bad for her she's not going to hell for lying, it's part of her job to make us feel beautiful.) She then preceded to give me the best haircut I can remember every receiving or ever enjoyed.
One of the other things that make me that nightmare client is that I only tend to get my hair cut every 4-6 months, and always a last minute call for an appointment. Saturday not only did I have to reschedule because I managed to get myself halfway to the salon without my wallet but when she found me in her chair my best direction to her was "I don't really want a haircut but I figured you'd fire me as a client if I came in one more time for a bang trim".
While it's true that I look like a million bucks thanks to Nicole my 2nd most favorite part of having my hair done at Benjamin Beau is the Scalp & Neck massage they give you with every cut. Yes they do! And let you enjoy a glass of wine if that's what you are into, and NO kids (not that I've seen anyway).
Do yourself, or someone you love, a favor and call and book an appointment with Nicole today. Regardless of if you KNOW you are a Hipster, or don't wanna be one at all there experience is one you will want to repeat.
